A painting of the Last Supper featuring a black Jesus will replace a Nativity scene at St Albans Cathedral to show solidarity with Black Lives Matter.
The Dean has agreed to install the 9ft piece of artwork on the altar after conceding that the church is in a weak position to preach about racial justice.
Titled A Last Supper, the painting reworks Da Vinci's renowned 15th century mural by casting a Jamaican-born model as Christ.
The announcement came less than a week after the Archbishop of Canterbury urged the Church of England to reconsider its portrayal of Christ as white.
Justin Welby said Christians should also accommodate global depictions of Jesus which show him as black, Chinese and Middle Eastern.
Embracing this philosophy, St Albans Cathedral in Hertfordshire is covering up its existing altarpiece painting with the high-resolution print which challenges 'the Western myth' that Jesus looked European.
It will cover up an untitled three-part painting of a scene from the Nativity, which shows the Virgin Mary and Child flanked by the shepherds and kings.

Madonna already did a video with this theme. They’re late to that party.
I really am unable to understand how a country—England, France, Germany, Sweden—can eagerly GIVE AWAY their country to a bunch of illiterate murdering savages. Their ancestors fought fiercely to defend every square inch against all comers, and these pukes enthusiastically INVITE their own conquerers and murderers into their country, provide them every sort of welfare (the vast majority of them don’t work) and will likely kneel down and bare their own necks when the savages deem it’s time to relieve them of their heads and other body parts, then simply appropriate all.
Well, look what they did to Notre Dame Cathedral.
They could make him Raptor Jesus. Or Jesus with Sunglasses

They’re mainly white or “off-white”, and certainly not black!!!!
This heterodox “cathedral” would rather placate the communist revolutionaries of BLM/AntiFa than maintain faith in the Incarnation! PHOOEY to them!!!!
Uhmmm, does no one understand Christ was a Jew? There’s no getting around that, so making him black, asian, indian or any other “ethnicity” is a lie.

I have no knowledge of modern Western European culture. But a lack of knowledge has never prevented me from posting. So Im gonna do it again.
My guess is that those folks are still struggling with the horrors of WW II. So now everyone wants to help the helpless. Everyone wants to save Anne Frank.
What these idiots dont understand is that they have it all wrong. Horribly wrong. The Muslims are the Nazis of today. Their family and their neighbors are the Anne Franks.
This election day, vote for Charles Taylor.
Disgusting.
Jesus died a horrific death for the sins and Salvation of ALL who believe. Thatshould be the focus.
“While our contemporary age seeks answers regarding how Jesus looked, Scripture gives little attention to His physical characteristics and instead focuses on His spiritual teachings. Accordingly, those who seek to follow Jesus are challenged to focus on living out His teachings rather than on speculating about His physical appearance.” Source: https://www.compellingtruth.org/Jesus-look-like.html
Britain is done. But they’ll continue to lecture us Yanks about our “lax gun laws”.
My guess is, if we are created on the 6th day, then the number of man is 6.
When we have fully replaced or substituted the Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Spirit, with our own glorious human selves, 6-6-6, then the end is near or nearly here.
Spiritually speaking, we would then be fully branded by the beast, having replaced Gods Seal on our forehead and right hand with the mark of the beast.
Just a guess, but thats what I see when I look at the world ... especially when viewed through the all seeing eye of the media. Pretty scaly.
Now show him washing their feet.
Isn’t
that
white-facing?
[That is a creepy image, if that is what they intend as the substitute.]
